Overview
WS Game Company rebuilds the classic four-in-a-row game as a vintage bookshelf edition, with a wooden vertical grid, wooden checkers and a linen-wrapped case that looks like a book. Everything packs into a storage tray inside, so it can stand on a shelf between games.
Display-worthy wooden pieces and a book style case are the reasons to buy as a gift. It plays the same as the classic game, so the upgrade is in materials and looks.
Who it's for
Adults who like a curated game shelf, and families teaching kids strategy, fit here. Homes with very young children should mind the small checkers.

Performance notes
Players drop checkers into the grid to line up four in a row while blocking the opponent, so each turn mixes attack and defense. The storage tray holds every checker when the case is closed.
